      My name is Dustin and I am currently a 3rd year medical student.  I volunteer with a group named Outrun the Sun, which supports melanoma research and skin cancer prevention education.  I wanted to invite you to learn about and participate in our first annual national Race in May.  This event will complement our 8th annual Outrun the Sun race in Indianapolis, IN.  

      The Race in May is a "virtual, yet real" run/walk that will occur throughout May (National Melanoma and Skin Cancer Awareness month) and anyone can participate no matter where you live.  You can make this event whatever you want it to be by creating a team or by participating on your own. Here's a link to the registration web site. http://www.raceinmay.kintera.org.  

      Outrun the Sun, Inc. is dedicated to building national awareness of melanoma and other skin cancers, educating communities about preventive measures that reduce melanoma’s incidence rate, and to raising funds for melanoma research, leading to effective treatments and a potential cure.  For more information on Outrun the Sun please visit our website http://www.outrunthesun.org
